I have put the seeds to prepare my nursery already for 5 acre of drip. Just save your crop from leaf miner and your tomato is safe. Tomato is one hell of a high yielding crop, plus when done in large acre we can also process it and make sauce from it during low rate seasons.

Wat say viks ??

Hai Vivek, Aman and friends,  
I am facing serious problems with my plants. I am still yet to fully recover from my stem rot problem and a new one has started. Initially it started with the edge rows on all the outer sides of the shade net. Then it is slowly spreading to the inside rows. The leaves have brown patches, small white mites kind of insects are on both sides of the leaves. I am attaching the pictures for better idea of the problem. Tried lot of pesticides both chemical and organic, but there is negligible effect on them. Please help me.

Hello Mr. Narasimha,  
firstly sorry for being very very late in replying.

Imidacloprid 70% WG + Buprofezin 25% SC

and then take repetitive sprays of plain water and sulphur.

wash the plants completely, also i see you are using gunny strings for support, this gives the pests space to hide (in the gunny thread twists). so wash them completely as well.

i guess there is uneven humidity, so wet the beds. meaning keep the drip running for extra 10-15 mins everytime. u could even consider flooding alternate walkways.

the damage is pretty severe, and its not just you who is having jassids and mites problem, sames the condition here…

i hope you have identified this problem and have enough time to take action.
